Mitsubishi 833 series HELP!

[andytk5]

I have recently purchased a Mitsu WD-65833 TV from SA. The TV has a great picture on most signals. My main complaint is that I see a grainy or static like effect. I have a samsung BDP1400 playing Bluray discs and I still see this grainy effect even with the 1080p signal. I have the HDMI going through the Denon 3808ci and thought this could be the problem, but I plugged it straight into the TV and it was the same. I noticed this on The Departed and 300 today, especially with a close up where you can see human skin. Also I notice blacks seem fuzzy or washout when there is a scene that is really dark.

I can still swap this TV out for another one or find a totally different oneall together. They had a sony 60" and a Samsung 6189s as well. I got this one because Sony was dropping Rear projection and the Sam led was not highly recomended. I need some help here fellas.
Thanks

300 has grain added intentionally, try playing some other blu rays before freaking out. I just recently got a WD-73733 and it's fantastic, blu ray's look great on it.

Maybe I should just swap it out with another 833 an see if it is better. It seemed to be the best for the price bracket. I'll just change it out and if that doesn't do it then I'll start looking around. I checked out the Departed, Spidey 3, Pirates seemed good though, it's hard to say after seeing the Pioneer Plasma Kuro... Damn! Just can't swing the 60+inch price tag at the moment.... lol

The Mits DLP is awsome. I have a plasma, LCD and the Mits and the Mits holds its own with the other two with ease. Make sure it is calibrated and then use a known high quality BD. Below is a nice list provided bt J Garcia.

Pick up a quality disc and you will see the benefits right away. These got 5/5 for video from High Def Digest (no particular order):
